Studies show that spirit wear and school pride products help students raise their grades and feel part of their school culture, extracurricular activities and a tight-knit community. It’s important for school administrators, teachers and coaches to look for ways to get students to proudly function as a team. One of the easiest ways to spark school spirit is to use fun and functional promotional apparel and products.
4 Ways School Spirit Products Help Students Succeed
These are four compelling reasons why it’s smart to invest time into creating a school spirit wear and products program.
1. Spirit wear and products create unity.
When students have the opportunity to wear school spirit wear or use promo items like backpacks or water bottles, they feel like they belong to a community. Studies have shown that when students wear unifying gear, they compete less and that reduces bullying.
2. Spirit products increase participation in activities.
We’ve seen that students who get involved in extracurricular activities perform better academically. Making custom school apparel and products part of athletics, marching band, clubs, pep rallies and homecoming boosts morale and helps students feel like they belong. That encourages other students to join, since they feel welcome as part of a unified school community. By the way, spirit wear is also great for field trips, to keep students together in a group and easily identify them for safety concerns.
3. Spirit products help rep your school positively.
Football and basketball players love showing their team pride. Cheerleaders and dance squads are proud of their moves. Theater students can’t wait to get on stage. When you give participants apparel and products that show they’re part of a school team or group, they’ll wear these t-shirts or tote a water bottle in the community, giving people positive vibes of your educational institution.
4. Integrate spirit wear and products into your school culture.
Rather than just letting students wear spirit wear during homecoming week, add spirit days into your calendar all year long. Some schools allow students to wear spirit wear on gym days or every Friday. Other times could include standardized test days, field days, classroom pride days and more.
